had on it the words: TO the President
of the United States At all events
they are beautiful pieces of work, and
we shall always treasure them" lin
deed we SHALL" replied Mrs. Cleveland;
''they shall be retained by us for always
as the most handsome souvenirs of the
kind we have ever received"
That the police obeyed orders yester-
day was practically demonstrated by
something that happened to Manager
Shepherd. He went to each officer at
the doors and told them to admit no one
unless they had something to show that
they were guests of the hotel. During
wanted to return found his entrance
barred by a siX-foot policeman, who
told him he could not go in. ''But am
the manager" eXpOStulated Mr.. Shep-
herd. ''Oh, go long wild ye,' was the
answer, ''ef yees was the manager yeeS
would have something to show for it,
So yees better go on now" Mr.. Shep-
herd took the hint and went in by a
back door where no one was on guard.
Afterwards he saw the patrolman and
complimented him upon his faithful
ness.
Emil Scaglia, the chief the West, has
der his charge was done in q manner
that drew forth praise from the entire
party.
One man who wanted to see the presi-
dent and Mrs. Cleveland, climbed 10 the
top of telegraph pole on the line of
march.
Aid. Cloutier, chairman of the COM
mittee Of arrangements, looked happy
all day long, even if he was busy, and
he had perfect right to do so, as it was
due materially to him that everything
passed off so pleasantly.
The police were complimented on
every hand for the mastery way in
which they handled the crowd at the
depot and around the West and the Ex-
position. 1t was remarkably well done,
and as Minneapolis is the first city
where the president and Mrs. Cleveland
have not witnessed the police clubbing
back the crowds, they were more than
pleased. The crowd was hard to ham
die, but the Minneapolis police force
did it, and right nobly, too. Another
thing that was particularly well done
was the placing of the militia in such
way that the crowd was kept away
from the carriages.
No serious accidents to man Or beast
have been reported, and SO far as known
but two runaWayS occurred.
The entire police force was Oil duty

cede the procession, Sergt. Leonard
with twelve patrolmen at the West and
Sergt. Kennedy with twelve patrolmen
at the depot.
One man, arrested at the corner of
Nicollet and Washington avenues. was
the only case of disorder i'll the vicinity
of the parade.
An old man was heard shouting all
over the Exposition wherever he vent
Here's to Andrew jackson, | have not
seen him for fifty years."
The Exposition looked Slicker and
cleaner than it ever did before. The
police force numbered with the firemen
on special duty a round 100 men, and
they deserve special praise for the man.

and the handsome appearance they all
had. Each officer wore white gloves and
had button-hole bouquet of roses and
ferns.
lady lost $3.50 in purse in the Ex-
position. Officer SeiltZ found it, and
the lady thanked him very politely. but
not cent did she offer for his honest
and creditable act.
The attendance at the Exposition yes
terday reached the grand total of $4,000
people.
A ridiculous occurrence was the
breaking of a railing and the precipita
ton of number of people sitting
upon it.
